Lonnie has a strong background in motivational speaking and improving the lives of our youth. He attended Syracuse University with a full scholarship and graduated with a degree in Engineering. Working hard and believing in himself, he fulfilled his lifelong dream to play in the NFL when he was drafted by the Cincinnati Bengals and later in his NFL career suited up for the Buffalo Bills & the New Orleans Saints. Despite his enjoyment for the game, Lonnie redirected his life to dedicate himself to today’s youth. In 2001, he founded Dreams for Kids, a 501c3 charity which assists in building a child’s character by providing them with the tools and guidance they need to believe in themselves & respect others. Lonnie’s motivating words of wisdom play a valuable role in our Complete Athlete 360 program as well as in the success of the athletes we serve.
